The first three parts of the tutorial are finished and online. The final two will be added shortly. The tutorial also goes into detail about how to make your own textures from images that wouldn't normally tile very well in-game.

If you have questions, spot any mistakes or have suggestions on how to make the tutorial better, post them in this thread.

kick ass tutorial man your the bomb!!!

This is an amazing tutorial (have it all printed). I'm going to ask if a moderator can sticky this in the Skinning and Modeling section (for i believe that is where it would belong).

(and to those who would say, you ARE a mod, sticky it!) I don't have power here, yet. I have to work hard to gain other forums in my control.

Wow...Nice I just read the pages...The bit after where you save the bump maped shader is confusing...Ill try with my bumpmap...Good site wih nice tutorials...

Where do you think the best place for this is? (Like what section)

Well, it is about a type of skinning. So i think it would be in the Skinning and Modeling section. There is a topic like this in there that you could maybe sticky.

Which part exactly? I want to make this as user friendly as possible.

The tutorial has made the news page of Halo Bungie Dot Org:

The fourth part of the tutorial is now online: http://www.earthenrecords.com/bumpmaptut/inter.htm

The final section, 'Advanced Bump Mapping' is now online. It's a bit different, since I hope you've learned enough from the other sections. It's designed to make you think for yourself and inspire you to come up with your own methods, as opposed to following another step-by-step tutorial that will teach you only one specific way of doing things.

Wow, they are some excellent demonstrations, awesome job!

This needs to be stickied

Pie, you are JA now, (he was a mod when he posted it though)

now you can sticky it

yes but it would be better to get permission to post the tutorial in text form here incase they change their links

I PMed him askign if he would want to make a new topic With the link to the front, explaining what the tutorial contains and is for. Then that can be stickied to elimate scrolling to see what has been released.

I think it owuld just be a better idea

just do the main index link...

and i emailed him lol

sorry for bumping this but i thought it wud be clever to move this to the tutorial section.

Well if you missed the conversation between me and tack122, we area trying to come up with a better way for this topic
